Big Creek park in Geauga County's Park District is part of the Buckeye Trail
Along with hiking trails, there are ponds and the Big Creek. Terrain is often steep valley descents and assents. Camping featuring tent sites and two reservation-held lean-too's that are wonderful.
Tuplo pond access is from the west side, along Ravenna Road.

Am i the only one that went 'off trail' because of this app and almost got stuck at the bottom of a steep slope? Lmao i almost called 911. But i didnt. I prayed to god and got my fat a$$ up to the top. I probably would not do it again but after the fact looking back it was kind of fun. My body hurt for about two days afterward. I am not going to do it again but at least it made me want to start walking and exercising more.

Have been here many times to run, hike, and dog walk. Trails are well groomed with good markers. Trails are short to moderate in length. Scenery includes woods, ravines, and creeks which are nice but not A+. 3 stars for functionality and ease.
